(Reuters) - The National Hockey League (NHL) canceled another two weeks of the regular season on Thursday, wiping out all games through January 14 due to a labor dispute with locked-out players that threatens to wipe out the entire campaign.

The decision brings the total number of lost regular season games to 625, or 50.8 percent of the season, the NHL said in a statement.
